Thermostat Wars IV: The Wenches Strike Back

Ugh the stupid women I live with set the thermostat to 65 degrees on cool.

The bloody high today is 74 degrees with a low of 41

I heard them out in the living room as I woke up from my nap: "It's the summer! You don't put it on heat during the summer!"

No you stupid idiots, you put it on heat when it's cold outside. WHEN THE BLOODY HIGH OF THE WEEK DECIDES TO STAY ABOVE 50 DEGREES, THEN WE CAN DISCUSS PUTTING THE A/C ON.

At least I finally found out who kept turning off the heat when we would have nights where the low was 28 degrees. No you retards, just because it was 73 one day in a week does not mean that it will continue to be so without abandon.

I bloody hate half the people I live with.

    It is hot as the dickens in my room, aparently this is because of whoever lives downstairs having their heat on all the time and it flowing up into my room.

    It's bloody cold outside too, so I can't just keep a window open all the time.

    I'm moving out of this place at the end of the term. Into a house with two law mates that I chose to live with.

    In a nice house with hardwood floors where undergrad girls live next door and are hot and not chubby, spoiled princesses.

    Where the dishes will actually be washed and I won't have to lock my door because I don't trust the mysterious people that happen to know the button combination to the house.

    Where the living room furniture does not disappear because the princesses don't like the look of it.

    Where the thermostat is set at 70 degrees and exactly at 70 degrees and never faltering from 70 degrees.

    My dorm has no thermostat.

    It just keeps whatever heat it gets, forever.

    There were times during this winter where I had to sleep with no blankets.

    It is quickly becoming spring.

    I live in a house with only 2 small space heaters and two window AC units, one of each in each bedroom. There's also very little to no insulation in this house at all. For whatever reason it's usually hotter inside than it is outside during the summer and colder inside than it is outside during the winter. I hate my house. :(

    edit: I also live in Texas, where the weather will be hot one day and cold as hell the next. Fuck this shit.

    So in fall one of my roommates would turn the thermostat to like 78 because he'd "rather have comfort over money". My other room mate and I explained to him that he more than likely wouldn't think that if his parents didn't pay for everything but he didn't believe that. Anyhow, through strict control of the thermostat, it now stays on 66 when it's cold, saving us some cash.

    Alternatively, Munkus, you could put on a sweater and save energy.

    An adorable sweater that's oh-so huggably soft, preferably.

    I live on the third floor, but we still turn on the heaters from time to time in the winter. They are little wall heaters in each room, so that saves us money by only heating the rooms we use... which is, like two besides the bathroom.

    In the summer though we just open all the windows and dance naked in front of the fans.

    What's it like living in a place with perpetual warmth? Seriously? I have never known temperatures north of 30 where I live.

    That's Celsius by the way.
